OCCUPATIONAL RISK FOR CHILDCARE WORKERS (2.16)

SOURCE: Staying Healthy in Childcare - Issue No, 9 (97/11)

Childcare Workers are at risk of getting infectious diseases. Infection Control practices such as hand washing can stop disease spreading among Staff and

children. Immunisation can also stop workers getting some diseases.

The Educator should make sure that their immunisations are up to date. Childcare Workers should discuss their history of measles and rubella immunisations or infection with their Doctor. They may

also wish to discuss whether or not to have additional immunisations, such as Hepatitis A vaccine. Infected workers may be excluded from caring for the recommended exclusion periods.

Chickenpox Most Childcare Workers will probably have had Chickenpox as a child and will not get it again. Infection with Chickenpox in the first three months of pregnancy may damage the unborn child. Pregnant women who are exposed to Chickenpox at any stage of the pregnancy should see their Doctor soon after exposure. The Doctor may give Varicella Zoster Immunoglobulin (VZIG). This is an injection of antibodies against Chickenpox.

Cytomegalovirus (CMV) CMV infection in early pregnancy may affect the unborn child. The infant may be unaffected, deaf or have multiple abnormalities. Whether the baby is affected depends on many factors. The two main factors are previous CMV infection and the stage of the pregnancy. The risk is very low if the mother has had CMV infection before. The risk of severe effects may be higher if the mother catches the disease in the early stages of pregnancy. The chance of Childcare Workers acquiring CMV infection when looking after 3 year olds seems to be greater than that of hospital staff or the general public. Childcare Workers may wish to have a blood test for CMV immunity before becoming pregnant. This would allow them to make an informed decision about work practices and to discuss these with their Doctor.

Erythema Infectiosum (also known as Parvovirus or Fifth Disease) The symptoms of this disease are slapped cheek rash (red cheeks that look as though they have been slapped) or arthritis. Pregnant women who develop these symptoms should discuss this with her Doctor. Parvovirus causes miscarriage or still births in a small percentage of women infected during pregnancy. Malformations do not appear to occur in babies who survive this infection in the mother.

Hepatitis A Hepatitis A vaccine is recommended for Childcare Workers, particularly those who care for children who are not toilet trained.



Hepatitis B Working with children is not a significant risk factor in acquiring Hepatitis B. Hepatitis B vaccine is therefore not recommended for routine use in Staff or children in childcare settings.

Infectious Diseases During Pregnancy Childcare Workers who are pregnant need to be aware of how some infections can affect the unborn child. This is a good time to make sure that good infection control practices are followed

Rubella It is especially important for women of childbearing age to be protected against Rubella, her baby may be born deaf, blind, or with heart and lung damage. Because Rubella is difficult to diagnose, a past history of the disease is unreliable as a guide to immunity. A blood test will show whether or not you have had Rubella.

Tuberculosis Adults employed at children’s facilities should have a pre-employment health screen. This should include a Tuberculin skin test (Mantoux test) and a chest x-ray. Adults who have spent some time working overseas and then resume working with children should have an employment Tuberculosis health check before starting work again.

Toxoplasmosis Childcare Workers are not at a greater risk of contracting Toxoplasmosis than other people. Toxoplas-ma infection in early pregnancy may lead to congenital abnormalities. There is no risk if the mother has had the disease before, but this is often unknown. Toxoplasmosis is acquired from contact with cat faeces (in soil or sandpits) or eating poorly cooked meat. If you are considering pregnancy, then a blood test will tell if you have already had Toxoplasmosis.
